I have several years experience as a nanny. I know CPR and first aid and have other medical training as well. I have experience with all age groups, Preemies, Quadruplets and special needs children. I do care in my home, but do not run a daycare. I feel it's very important to give children a lot of attention through learning and play. I love what I do and feel I have received great references and reviews from local families I have worked for over the years of being a nanny. This is much more to me than a job. If you are looking for someone who will treat your children as if they were their own I'm your nanny. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Brenda

Brenda is 1000%, yes I said one thousand percent.  She handles everything having to do with our home. She schedules services, pays providers, handles our errands, and basically acts as my personal assistant. She straightens the home every day so we can enjoy our home.  She has access to every part of our world and I have absolute trust in her abilities and integrity. 

Brenda has been taking care of my 14 month old since he was 10 weeks old. She is reliable and easy to work with and I trust her completely with my son. She has many years experience which was reassuring to me as a first time mom. She is very direct, which I appreciate because I believe that's important for clear communication. She asks the right questions and does her best to understand my child's needs so that the care she provided is in line with my own values. Would recommend to anyone.

Brenda made our interview with her easy; the  she was very kind and made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked through the door.  Her references couldn't say enough good things about her and that along with her experience, flexibility, and genuine care and compassion for children made us feel as though she would be a great fit for our family. We look forward to working with Brenda!

I was interested in hiring Brenda to watch my 5 week old daughter after reading her positive reviews and seeing her 5 star rating.  As a new mom I was very nervous about trusting someone new to look after her.  After interviewing Brenda I was extremely relieved and reassured that she would be in caring and trusting hands.  I would highly recommend Brenda to any new parents looking for someone to care for their child!

We hired Brenda due to her experience and great references. She was also very excited to work with a newborn. After watching our daughter twice she overstepped and was extremely judgemental, questioning if we were working with a pediatrician to work on our daughter's GI issues without ever asking a question or coming from a place of concern. We walked away feeling extremely hurt and judged after having limited interactions with her. She then avoided having a conversation with me about it and was eager to cut off ties with us. Save yourself the trouble and find someone else a little more compassionate and less judgemental. 

I couldn't be happier with Brenda and how she cares for my 4 month old son. I knew she was awesome even before we met in person due to her wonderful communication and desire to make sure we knew as much about her as possible. She is incredibly knowledgeable and talented in all areas when it comes to child care. She is comfortable with any and every request that I have had and her home is perfectly equipped. I continue to be impressed! I was so paranoid about leaving my son with a stranger but now I feel completely worry free and happy to leave him. She even texts me and sends me pictures throughout the day! Brenda is kind, caring, and an absolute home run choice when it comes to picking someone to care for your child. Thank you!!

Brenda is definitely deserving of five stars!! She started nannying my daughter at ten weeks and has been such a great support for our family as I have transitioned back to work. Brenda is reliable, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and honest. You can immediately see that she loves children and takes her job very seriously. She is someone who puts her all into taking great care of the babies she watches. She made us feel very comfortable with her good communication and high level of experience. We are very lucky to have her and it's clear our daughter loves spending time with her too!

I would highly recommend Brenda! I was nervous about finding a babysitter to watch my 9 month old daughter but after meeting with Brenda my worries went away. She was able to watch her on very short notice and was very sweet. I didn't have a worry the whole time I was at work. 

Brenda watched our cat for a few days during the holidays. She was easy to get a hold of, prompt, and kept us updated each day to keep our minds at ease. For our next vacation I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

Brenda has been watching my daughter for about 3 weeks now and I couldn't be happier. She always gives me updates during the day and when we had one little accident (tear in her lip) she contacted me immediately and even went a step further and contacted her own doctor to ask advise on the cut.  I feel a great sense of trust with Brenda and that my daughter is in excellent care. She gives great advice too in helping my daughter learn and grow which is priceless when I am a first time mom! Would definitely recommend Brenda!!!

Brenda watched my daughter when she was one, while I went to school. She had first aid experience in case of an emergency, a very clean and kid friendly home, and she never took more than a few kids at one time. My daughter loved her. Brenda took time and introduced her to letters and numbers. We moved when my daughter was two to another state, but I would highly recommend Brenda. I never once worried about my daughters safety or felt like she was being put in front of a TV all  day. She regularly came home with art projects and a big smile on her face. 

Brenda has been wonderful to my two young children. My one year old feels very comfortable going to her house, and I feel my children are in good hands. I am able to go to work and not worry about my kids. She is fair with costs and doesn't mind frequent updates on the kiddos. We really enjoy her and appreciate her kindness with kids.

Brenda has been watching my little girl for over a month now and I could not be happier. My daughter is comfortable with her, and Brenda treats her as if she were her own. There is a difference between someone who watches your child versus someone who cares for them, and Brenda is the type who cares. As a mother, I can't ask for more out of someone who looks after my daughter.

Brenda graciously took my son one weekend on short notice while I was in a bind. I was nervous, as anyone would be to leave my son with someone knew, but immediately upon entering her home I knew he would have a great time. My son immediately warmed up to her and didn't even notice when I left (which for me is a relief). She kept in touch with me (as per my request) while he was in her care, and when I returned to get him he was so excited about his time with her!! She was extremely nice and professional, and I would never hesitate to refer her to anyone who needs care. The fact that she was willing to help me out on a weekend with literally no more than 24 hours notice speaks volumes about her dedication to caring for children. Brenda was wonderful and we look forward to a lovely caregiver relationship with her!

Brenda did not want to babysit for me because there was not enough hours. I told her I was just starting a job and didn't know the hours I was going to be given. But the hours would lead to full-time. She was not willing to work with me until I knew for sure my schedule and hours. I will not recommend her to anyone. She had a poor attitude about the situation and was not very willing.

Brenda has been a wonderful caregiver for our son. He has been in her care for a year and a half and absolutely loves her. I never have to worry about him when he's in her care because she is just like an extension of myself when it comes to looking after him. She is also flexible with our crazy schedules, which helps us a lot. We, as a family, feel very lucky to have her in our lives and apart of our family.

Brenda sounds great but was not available the day that I needed her. I will definitely try her again.
